Beyond Information Security and Cybersecurity: The Journey to Digital Risk, Resilience & Trust

September 3 @ 10:00 am 11:00 am CHICAGO

By attending this webinar, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the evolution from information security and cybersecurity to digital risk and resilience, and why the traditional security mandate is no longer sufficient for the digitally dependent organization.
  • Consolidate overlapping disciplines and terminology—including information security, cybersecurity, IT risk, technology risk, data protection, cyber resilience, and digital operational resilience—into a coherent digital risk and resilience capability.
  • Position digital risk and resilience within broader operational risk and resilience, connecting digital threats, vulnerabilities, controls, and dependencies to critical business services, objectives, decisions, and stakeholder impacts.
  • Identify the governance, leadership, organizational, and cultural changes required to move from a technically focused security-control model to an integrated, business-aligned approach.
  • Develop a practical roadmap for delivering digital trust through stronger risk intelligence, resilient digital operations, meaningful business measures, coordinated response, and confident use of technology.

Information security / cybersecurity can no longer operate as isolated technical disciplines focused primarily on protecting systems, managing vulnerabilities, responding to threats, and demonstrating compliance. Digital technology now permeates every business process, product, service, customer interaction, third-party relationship, and strategic objective.

Organizations have developed many overlapping functions and labels—including information security, cybersecurity, IT risk, technology risk, data protection, cyber resilience, digital operational resilience, and technology continuity. While each brings an important perspective, fragmented terminology, ownership, and processes can create silos, duplication, gaps, and confusion.

These disciplines need to converge into an integrated capability for digital risk and resilience: understanding digital uncertainty in business context, protecting critical digital assets and services, anticipating disruption, sustaining operations, recovering effectively, and enabling the organization to pursue digital opportunities with confidence.

This webinar explores the transition from traditional information security and cybersecurity programs to a business-aligned digital risk and resilience capability. It examines how digital risk and resilience fits within the broader discipline of operational risk and resilience, how security leadership must evolve, and how organizations can connect technology, threats, controls, dependencies, critical services, and business objectives.

The goal is not simply a more secure organization. It is a resilient organization that can confidently depend on technology and deliver digital trust to customers, employees, regulators, investors, partners, and other stakeholders.

GRC 20/20 Presenter . . .

Michael Rasmussen

If you ask my family what I do for a living, they might say that I “travel the world talking about risk.” And honestly, that wouldn’t be far from the truth. But the more formal introduction is that I am an analyst, researcher, storyteller, and, as the industry likes to remind me, the Father of GRC. More than 23 years ago, while at Forrester Research, I coined the acronym GRC and articulated it as a way to integrate governance, risk management, and compliance capabilities in strategy, process, and technology.

Today, through GRC 20/20 Research, I spend my days studying how organizations around the world navigate complexity and uncertainty. My job is to observe patterns, identify challenges, understand how strategy, process, and technology intersect, and help organizations evolve to be more effective, efficient, resilient, and agile. Along the way, I also founded GRC Report, a global news and insights platform focused entirely on governance, risk management, compliance, and business integrity news and insights around the world. It has become a place where practitioners, executives, policymakers, and technologists can see the GRC landscape through a global lens.

I also host two podcasts — Risk Is Our Business Podcast and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the GRC Technology Galaxy Podcast — because I believe conversation is one of the most powerful tools we have for changing how people think about risk and integrity. These podcasts allow me to explore big ideas with remarkable minds from around the world, and they keep me grounded in the reality that risk is not merely a function — it is the fabric of every decision and every ambition. In many ways, I am an explorer of uncertainty. As an industry analyst, I map and monitor the ever-expanding GRC galaxy — now tracking over 1,500 solutions and the professional services orbiting them. The universe of GRC is vast, dynamic, and constantly in motion, and I am endlessly fascinated by how organizations chart their course through it.
